Red blood cells transport oxygen throughout our body. However, oxygen can also dissolve in blood plasma...
3. The volume of blood plasma in an adult is 5.0 L, about 95% of which is water, and it has a density of 1.025 g/mL. The pressure at an underwater depth of 30.0 m is 4.1 atm (4.154325 bar). If a SCUBA diver descends to this depth, how many mg of N, (KH=6.0 x 10 mol/kg*bar) are dissolved in her blood? What percentage of N, comes out of the solution when the diver surfaces (at sea level)? Assume constant...
Hemoglobin is the oxygen-transport protein in red blood cells and contains 0.340% iron (Fe) by mass. If a blood sample is found to have 12.0 g/dL of hemoglobin, how many iron atoms are in a human body that has 5.0 pints of this blood? Note that d stands for the prefix deci- meaning 1/10, 1 pt = 473.176 mL, and NA = 6:022 X 10^23.
(1). Which of the following molecules is most soluble in hexane, C6H14? NH3 CH3NH2 CH3OH CH3CH3 H2O (2). Which of the following molecules is most soluble in methanol CH3OH? N(CH3)3 CH3NH2 CH3COCH3 CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 HOCH2CH2OH (3). Calculate the concentration of CO2 in a soft drink that is bottled with a partial pressure of CO2 of 5 atm over the liquid at 25 °C. The Henry’s Law constant for CO2 in water at this temperature is 3.12 ´ 10–2 mol L–1 atm–1....
